The Digital Arabic Maqām Archive is an innovative open-access and open-source online platform dedicated to the study and exploration of the Arabic maqām system.
The platform is designed as a resource for students, musicians, composers, musicologists, educators, researchers, coders/developers, and anyone interested in the rich music theory of the Arabic-speaking region.
It offers an interactive and academically rigorous repository of tuning systems, ajnās, and maqāmāt, along with their suyūr (pathways of melodic development) and intiqālāt (modulations), all of which can be played and heard with a computer keyboard or via MIDI.
In addition, it provides in-depth mathematical data and analysis, comprehensive export options, an API and an NPM library for programmatic access to the data.
